Got a tki belt drive and the inner edge of the belt is running up onto the edge of the idler pulley. Used kit. Vague instructions. Anybody able to tell me if it’s ok to run without washers between arm and pulley so I can get the pulley moved over?

I found with with the tki - if you over tighten the upper sprocket it mushs the back side of the sprocket - which could cause that - is it the tensioner that's mangled?

Are there 2 bearings in that tensioner? Is one side applying more force than the other?
